Ok, I have a 93 ga, and when i come to a quick stop and keep the clutch in my car will just turn off. It also dies when I have the clutch in and I'm in first about to take off. In other gears, as soon as I let back off the clutch the car will start right back up. I have no idea what it is and I've talked to a few other people who are clueless.
my car was doing that same thing. so i straped the motor down and the pressure ring was gone on the # 2 piston. you need to get a compression test. you may have a bad ring on one of the pistons

I have a 1990 sentra, and mine did that too. I first changed most of the hoses (the worst off vac. hoses), then did a vac check on the valves, EGR, and IACV. Changing the vac. hoses out seemed to help alot, but on occasion, if I don't let the RPMs drop gradually, it will sometimes drop below 500 RPM, and the engine may cut out. I haven't checked everything yet (I'm working on other things on my car right now, like fog lamps), but our problems sound similar. If you figure it out first, I'm keeping an eye out on this thread.
I did a tune-up about 8,000 miles ago...It doesn't really sound like its sputtering, just when I go to downshift the car just shuts off. I'm going to go ahead and do the compression test, I think my rings are shot anyways...when I keep my car idling and remove the oil filler cap the idle changes drastically and I've heard that might be a sign that the rings are shot. Does anyone know where to get a quality set of rings?

Theres no need to get new rings, because if the rings are bad 9 time of 10 the walls are missed up. so you mit as well do the whole motor, are get another one.
